General Health Care
There are many times when people value being able to talk about health concerns in an informal, friendly and supportive environment.
Sadly, the NHS - with its ever-increasing pressures on staff - does little to encourage this. All too often patients end up feeling that they are some kind of inconvenience to be disposed of as quickly as possible. People say 'I don't want to trouble the doctor', when what they really mean is that they're afraid a doctor won't take the time to listen to their concerns, or discuss the possibilities fully and frankly.
This situation is equally frustrating for doctors who want to give each patient the attention they deserve. And it is why, after many years in the NHS, Dr Mike Debenham has established his own private practice.
As a private GP, Dr Debenham is able to treat each patient as an individual, taking the time to get to know the person as well as their health concerns. This brings enormous benefits - something that you might consider too trivial to mention in a rushed NHS surgery visit may turn out to have important health implications. And it is almost always the case that the sooner a health problem is identified, the easier it is to treat effectively.
What we're emphasising
here is that, just as private practice enables us to provide a far higher
standard of service, it also enables you to approach health care very
differently. Instead of worrying and putting off actually doing something, you can
just pick up the phone and arrange to discuss the matter with Dr Debenham - assured that
you'll receive a warm and sympathetic welcome.
Whether for yourself or a family member, please contact us to
discuss ANY health issue that is concerning you. With the combination of Dr
Debenham's wide experience and his close association with the Nuffield Trust, you are
assured of the highest standards of care.
